Opening with a general introduction to the principles of BCI operation, brain signal acquisition using different types of sensors, BCI signal processing (including common feature extraction and feature translation methods), and device output, this general introduction to BCI research is followed by an introduction to the BCI2000 software platform, including a step-by step tour and step-by-step tutorials for using BCI2000 with sensorimotor rhythms and P300 evoked potentials. Advanced concepts are discussed and a programming reference and exercises included. There is a section for frequently asked questions and technical references.

Graduate students and postdoctoral associates getting started with BCI research and/or the use of BCI2000 will find this book very valuable. The tutorials and exercises will also prove useful for further reading and for lab assignments in courses on BCI research.
